Frase.io review: pricing, pros and cons, and how it compares to Seonix
By Pavlo Fedotov, Founder of Seonix · Facts verified October 9, 2026
Both write SEO articles, audit your site and track your brand in AI answers. The difference: for the same $49 a month, Seonix publishes 30 articles instead of 10 and rewrites the ones that slip until the score recovers.
The short answer
Frase fits teams that want a site audit, AI-visibility tracking and an agent that can publish on its own in one subscription, and can live with 10 articles a month on the $49 Starter ($4.90 each). For most small businesses Seonix is the better pick at the same $49: 30 articles a month (about $1.63 each), each built from the pages that already rank, refreshed when it slips and measured in your own Search Console — plus a $0 plan with a full technical site audit. The honest exception: if you need 70+ languages or AI-visibility tracking beyond ChatGPT — in Perplexity, Claude or Gemini — Frase goes further on its higher plans.

Where Seonix is better than Frase
Articles built from the pages that already rank
Before writing, Seonix reads the pages that already rank for your keyword, measures which page format wins, and checks that the draft covers the topics those pages cover before it is published. Each article is written to your site's audience, tone and topics, with headings, meta, internal links to your real pages, images and schema in place.
Every article scored, and refreshed when it slips
Every Seonix article carries a real-time SEO score, and when one starts losing positions, Seonix rewrites it until the score recovers. Frase's Content Guard proposes fixes that wait for your approval by default.
Results you can verify in your own Search Console
Seonix connects Google Search Console and GA4 and shows each page's progress from the first publish — indexing, impressions, rankings — and which articles bring customers. Frase's plans meter audit pages and tracked AI prompts; Search Console reporting isn't listed on its pricing page.
Three times the articles for the same $49
Seonix Starter publishes 30 articles a month for $49 (about $1.63 each); Frase Starter gives 10 for the same $49 ($4.90 each), and 40 means Professional at $129. Seonix also starts with a $0 plan that runs a full technical site audit — no card, no time limit.
How Seonix makes articles that rank
- 01
Research from real searches
Finds the queries your customers actually search, from real search data.
- 02
Built from what already ranks
Reads the pages that rank for each keyword and checks the draft covers what they cover.
- 03
Scored before it goes live
Every article gets a live SEO score, internal links to your real pages, images and schema.
- 04
Measured and refreshed
Search Console shows each article's rankings; articles that slip get rewritten.
When is Frase the better choice?
- A site audit and AI-visibility tracking on every plan from $49: 50 tracked prompts in ChatGPT and Google AI on Starter, up to 500 prompts across five AI platforms on Scale — broader than Seonix's scans of ChatGPT answers.
- 70+ languages, against Seonix's 50+.
- An agent that can publish on its own once enabled, while Content Guard fixes wait for your approval by default, with opt-in automatic low-risk fixes.
- Publishing to WordPress, Webflow, Sanity, Wix or its own hosted FraseCMS, and a 7-day trial with no card.
Should you choose Seonix or Frase?
Frase covers a lot of the same ground: a site audit, AI-visibility tracking across up to five platforms and an agent that can publish on its own, all from $49. Where they part is volume and upkeep: for the same $49, Seonix publishes 30 articles instead of 10, rewrites the ones that slip until the score recovers, shows results in your own Search Console, and lets you start on a $0 plan with a full technical audit. Stay with Frase if you need 70+ languages, prompt tracking in Perplexity, Claude and Gemini, or Sanity publishing; for most small businesses that need a steady stream of articles built from what already ranks, Seonix is the better buy.
